A review of surgical results in hiatus hernia.
نویسنده
چکیده
In 1954 a paper was published (Collis, Kelly, and Wiley) which described a study of the control of reflux at the lower end of the oesophagus and put forward an operative technique based on the findings. This operation has been used since that time, and this paper gives the experience from the first 200 consecutive cases. The period covered is from March, 1953, to March, 1960, but of special interest are the findings from the cases done before March, 1956, because from them a four-year follow-up is available.
